Sunday Stamps - February 23, 2025

 No English Words!  

That's the theme for this week's Sunday Stamps.

Poland 1963 
The Frisia, built in 1872.

Iran c1911

South Korea 1960


Monaco 1955 - Jules Verne Anniversary Series
Five Weeks in a Balloon 

Russian Empire 1917

I knew the online translation for this was incorrect, it gave me "what brand."  Brand makes sense if we think of it as brand on cattle, a mark.  Fortunately, someone who speaks Russian told me the literal translation is "postal mark."


That's all for February.  March brings not just four, but five themes!  The first, next week, will be Famous Women.

  1. I love the south Korean and Monaco stamps. Nice work on the translation from Cyrillic. In vaccinated by that alphabet

  2. The Monaco stamp is so beautiful. I also like the first from Poland: beautiful ship design.

  3. I like that you displayed different alphabet. I am a fan of Jules Verne, so the Monaco stamp would get a special place in my collection.
